Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Unexpected con of working a job that makes me travel regularly: half of the likes I get on dating apps are from people on opposite sides of the US from me 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Been playing this with a good group of friends and Holy shit it's an adventure 001
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 16/07/2026As you can guess, I'm now looking for a place that doesn't spit in my face when I make them millions of dollars. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 16/07/2026I got marked in the "You're not on a PIP, I promise" bracket because I was overdue on a couple non-essential training modules. 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Random thing, but let it be known that if your organization uses KPIs that have NOTHING to do with the outcome your employees drive, you're going to lose top talent faster than you can blink. 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 05/07/2026He didn't mean any harm. He legit just thought the war was won. The fact that people like that exist means we've come a long way. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Just had a very interesting conversation with a well-meaning Uber driver that thought LGBTQ people were no longer being persecuted for being who they are. It's weirdly heartwarming to see people who are in spaces where they truly think the whole world is like that. 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 02/07/2026I have this sudden urge to pet a cat, and there's no feline friend within my immediate vicinity. My day is ruined. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Something I find funny as a nom-native Japanese speaker is when I look at something written in Kanji and have no clue how to pronounce it, but know what it says. Even better is when I ask a native Japanese friend how to pronounce it, and they say, "I have no clue, but I can tell you what it means" 010
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 19/06/2026True friendship is listening to them talk about their favorite Warhammer faction for 3 hours even though you know nothing about Warhammer 020
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 08/06/2026I recently went to an event for people in my career space, and I just had this weird moment where I realized I'm no longer the target audience. I'm the seasoned professional talking to a bunch of wide-eyed 20-somethings about career stuff. Kinda wild to see progression like this. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 08/06/2026I'm in a really self-destructive mindset tonight. I'm doing my best to keep myself grounded. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 04/06/2026It's all fun and games until you're fixing the lawnmower, and a big squirt of solvent goes directly into your eye. Not a fun trip to the urgent care today 010
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Gonna most likely move this type of content to a different account, but my boi is finally alive :D 020
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Thinking I might do a bit of re-branding (or just make a different account more likely) for my furry shenanigans once my ref sheet is finished. I'd rather not inundate my non-furry friends with weird furry shit all the time 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Man, I can't believe they spelled it wrong in the diagram 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 15/05/2026100% fair. I'm busy enough these days that I can't realistically spend the 200+ hours it would take me to make it myself, and I barely have a creative bone in my body. I'm also lucky enough to have my finances in order, and I can "responsibly" make occasional big purchases like this. 010
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 15/05/2026This is the pre-sales process. You need to show me the quality I can expect from you, and you need to convince me that you're better than my other options. Don't just immediately ask for a ref and assume I'm gonna entertain a quote from someone I have no experience with. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 15/05/2026I don't know why i didn't expect this post to bring out all the people who are begging for a 4-figure commission. I understand the hustle, but if you want a chance at me taking you seriously, you need to show me what you can do. You have to compete with the list of makers I've met in person. 220
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Yeah, I was amazed too. They are incredibly good at capturing the personality of the character though. A lot of suit makers have a generic, cartoonish vibe which really limits your options. I really want my character to shine through the suit, and the artists who can do that tend to be expensive. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 14/05/2026> Looking up fursuit makers after FWA > Got a list of ones to check out from perusing the dealers den > First one has commission prices starting at 10k for a partial 470
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Post-con blues, but it's just me looking back on all the cuties that went un-smooched at the event 010
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Also to the cutie that gave me one hell of a good bite at a party: I'm very sad I didn't get your name 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 11/05/2026It's almost time to board my flight back home from FWA. I had so much fun and got to meet all sorts of amazing people. To everyone I had the privilege to meet, thanks for giving me the best experience I've ever had. I couldn't have asked for a better first impression to FWA. Until we meet again. 110
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Kinda feeling like I made a mistake being here tbh 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Took a very long time to break that lesson, and I still have trouble with it. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 29/04/2026I often think about how I got in trouble as a kid because I told off my cousin for scratching my PS2 games when I let him borrow them. I think that single moment severely set back my social development. I was taught that it's not okay to be mad when people don't respect you/your things. 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Inorganic chemistry: "This reaction causes all sorts of vibrant colors and produces enough heat to melt through steel" Organic chemistry: "This white powder will make you violently ill. This other white powder will kill you if you touch it. This other white powder tastes like vanilla." 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 15/04/2026So who's got the room at FWA where we just sit around and binge watch the entirety of Xavier: Renegade Angel? 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 13/04/2026I'm so excited for FWA! Gonna be my first time going 010

Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 02/03/2026I've been playing around with different meal services like Factor recently and it's really opened my eyes to how obsessed people are with proteinMaxxing. For the love of all things holy, EAT SOME FIBER WITH THAT PROTEIN-BLASTED ABOMINATION 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 23/02/2026I'm still thinking about the Marc Rebillet concert I went to on Friday. I legitimately think that's one of the best shows I've ever seen. A fully improvised set where the artist is feeding off the energy of the crowd? It was absolutely electric. 100% recommend. 050
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 23/02/20262 ideas on why they're pushing this out: 1. Increasing government pressure forcing them to roll out age/identity verification (more likely IMO) 2. They plan to use this info for targeted advertising. You don't eat the cost of verifying millions of users if you think it's gonna lose money. 010
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 23/02/2026As someone who works in cybersecurity, the whole reason Discord is using a third party in the first place is because they don't want to be held legally responsible if there's a breach. I still don't know the economic sense here, though. They wouldn't roll this out if they thought it lost money. 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 03/02/2026It used to be a pain in the ass to tighten anything without stripping the screw, but now I know I just was using shit tools that weren't built correctly from the beginning. The right tool makes a world of difference. 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 03/02/2026I've really underestimated how nice it is to have a quality set of tools around the house. I made do with those cheap 50-in-one tool kits for a long time, but after picking up a nice set of screwdrivers, I realized I've just been on hard mode. 100
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 24/01/2026I love that the main indicator that the cybersecurity community is full of furries is that they both hand out stickers like candy. I've never gone to a security conference or a furcon without obtaining like 700 stickers. 010
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 13/10/2025When you find out the "suspiciously wealthy" furry actually works as a mechanic making 50k/year, and this is just the one hobby they spend all their spare cash on 000
Evilsqirrel @evilsqirrel.bsky.social · 10/09/2025I'm at this point in life where I look at my struggles (current events excluded, obviously) and realize that pretty much all of my problems are good ones to have. Almost all of my problems are from having good things in my life, and I hope you have good things to worry about, too. You deserve it.media.tenor.coma cartoon of two teddy bears standing next to each other with the words imgplay in the bottom right cornerALT: a cartoon of two teddy bears standing next to each other with the words imgplay in the bottom right corner 020
